NEW ARRIVAL The Gibson Songwriter Deluxe 12 features a Sitka Spruce top with Indian Rosewood back and sides and a dreadnought body size - quite an unusual mix for a 12 string but it really works well. This combination gives a sparkling tone, with rich, detailed overtones - really quite dynamic. The guitar has such deluxe features as an Ebony fingerboard and bridge with Abalone inlays and rosette, a multiple bound body with chequerboard back stripe, and gold hardwear. It’s in very good condition, and at 11 years old it’s beginning to mature really well. There’s also an active underside pickup fitted with volume control mounted inside the soundhole. The guitar comes in it’s original Gibson embossed hard case.
